Cation Radical Salts of the Unsymmetrical Diimine-Dithiolene Complexes. 41... 

Matsubayashi et al. revealed donor abilities of the unsymmetrical diimine-dithiolene complexes [11-14]. The unsymmetrical complexes provided cation radical salts with various anions including I3, Br3 and TCNQ by use of chemical oxidation [11-14]. The electrical resistivities of the cation radical salts measured with their compressed pellets at room temperature are summarized in Table 1. The electrical resistivities of the dmit complexes were very high. The cation radical salts of the CgH4Sg-complexes, which have the BEDT-TTF moiety [22, 23], exhibited lower resistivity than those of dmit complexes, except for [(Bu-pia)Pt(CgH4Sg)] salts. However, crystal structures of these salts were not reported, and details of their electrical properties and electronic states were not discussed based on their crystal structures.
